If a webpage could run a program installed on another computer, the entire world wide web would be hacked into tiny pieces and cease to exist. No one would ever use the web, it would be so totally insecure. So web pages are prohibited from running programs on your computer. They can … Re: Cannot run exe from asp.net 5 Days Ago by Salem https://xyproblem.info/ * User wants to do X. Sometime later... > My boss just asked me to create a prototype as proof of concept.

Technically correct but there are ways around it. For example, save a file in a special folder on the target computer, which has a folder watch on that folder. The watching task could then trigger a local task. Re: How to open an Excel Document in VB.NET 1 Week Ago by JamesMichaelm I see it's been a while since you posted, but I'm curious if anyone here has tried using the Open XML SDK instead of Interop or OleDb for reading Excel files. I found it faster and doesn't require Excel to be installed, though it can be more complex for writing. Wondering how others handle big Excel files or ones with tricky formatting? Re: How to open an Excel Document in VB.NET 1 Week Ago by PitSterw I've worked on something similar and found that using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel lets you open the file and loop through cells easily. Cannot run exe from asp.net 1 Week Ago by lennyli I have tried to read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/web-development/threads/386380/cannot-run-exe-files-in-asp-net-application but still lost in trying to achieve something.

Since the log file is recreated automatically what is the problem with just deleting it? But if you want to shorten it you could always open it as write (but not append) and write a null string to it.

Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Dani Linux has come a long way, but it's still primarily a server OS, correct? How many of you linux fanboys and girls use it as your primary operating system for daily tasks? How does it compare to Windows or macOS in terms of productivity and overall user experience? Re: Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim I've tried loinux several times over the years on spare computers, virtual machines, and a Raspberry Pi. I gave up on all of them because it was too difficult to maintain. Now all I use it for is Live USB recovery tools. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Salem I use it all day, every day. TBH, M$ stopped being an OS company after Windows 7 and the so-called OS just became a marketing tool to ram ever more crap in front of your face. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Vince_6 I used Linux on and off for years. I was finally willing to commit to Windows 11 when it installed some updates and it went into a reboot loop afterwards. I said screw it and went back to Linux. Been using it for months as my primary OS and I am quite happy with the decision. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Dani I started this thread thinking about James, DaniWeb's sysadmin, who I was surprised to hear uses Windows as his daily driver, despite his proficiency in Linux. I believe he quoted things like Linux not being ideal for gaming. I'm macOS only these days. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 2 Weeks Ago by Benjamin_17 The last time I used Windows was Windows XP when I got a blue screen of death trying to install it. Since then, I have been daily driving with Linux (Ubuntu then Pop! then back to Ubuntu) since then. No real problems, yes I do not play the games I use to, but within Steam there is still quite a healthy choice to pick from. Honestly I would struggle… Re: Is linux your daily driver? 1 Week Ago by jkon I exclusively use Linux on my personal PCs, currently the Ubuntu distribution. I switched from Windows between 2010 and 2012. Before that, I used Linux on a different PC for several years, followed by a period of dual booting. Thanks to WINE, I have yet to encounter software I cannot run on my PC. I believe Ubuntu has become so user-friendly that … Re: Is linux your daily driver? 1 Week Ago by Reverend Jim When I ran into problems with linux I found the online help was less than helpful. The help, when offered, consisted of experts explaining things to other experts, even though I mentioned that I was anything but. All help assumed I had much more knowledge than I did. The explanations sounded like Trek techno-babble. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 1 Week Ago by Reverend Jim >Yes , that is still an issue... Many years back a neighbour was taking an evening course to become more computer literate. She was confused one day, telling me that her instructor had tried to explain to the class what "formatting a disk" meant.

Re: Cannot run exe from asp.net 1 Week Ago by rproffitt I see pritaeas has answered so I'll move to the next stage of the discussion which is to ask what you need in your web site. For example there is an "online notepad" which does some basic notepad work. And there are many screensavers that run from a webpage with an example at whitescreen.online . You can get there.
